- private room dinner
We've done a few private dinners there and everything has been wonderful. The service is great and there's plenty of food for everyone and it's all delicious. We had three dinners in the long room upstairs and just had one downstairs. I'm going to ask for that room from now on. It's much larger and there is no noise from the dining room.
- corporate event, party of 8
For our dine-and-learn event, the organizers chose Limani NYC at the Rockefeller Center to be the venue. The entire place is pristine. Our function room was spacious. Since it was a prix fixe, the menu was already laid out on our table. The appetizers of calamari, Greek spreads, tomato salad, peppers, and kolokithi; paper-thin zucchini, eggplant & kefalotyri cheese, and lightly fried were served family style. It was sumptuous, flavorful, and enough for 8 people on the table. For the main entree, my eyes caught the 10 oz. Prime beef tenderloin. I had it medium well. It was served with asparagus and potatoes. The filet mignon was cooked to perfection. We then capped the night with a fruit platter, honey and yogurt, baklava, and Portokalopita; orange and vanilla cake, vanilla whipped ganache, honey, and lavender ice cream to share. It was a perfect set of desserts to conclude a lovely and educational night.
- group dinner, party of 20
We had a party of 20. Service was excellent and food was great. Made us feel like we were in their living room. Our whole party was impressed.
- holiday group dinner, party of 11
NYC location - Terrible!! Do not recommend. We had a party of 11, purposely booked here for the ambiance of the holiday and see the tree and they stuffed us downstairs in a small room with no windows, took forever for them to come to the table with bread and drink orders, food was terrible, lemon potatoes were ice cold, lamb chops were dry. Very disappointing as we absolutely love the Roslyn location. Two completely different restaurants.
